ANTI-STATIC MEASURES
The server contains electronic components sensitive to static electricity. Avoid failures caused by static electricity when
installing or removing any optional devices.
 Wear an anti-static wrist strap (an arm belt or anti-static glove).
If no anti-static wrist strap is available, touch an unpainted metal part of the cabinet before touching a
component to discharge static electricity from your body.
Touch a metal part regularly when working with components to discharge static electricity.
 Select a suitable work space.
– Work with the server on an anti-static or concrete floor.
– When you work with the server on a carpet where static electricity is likely to be generated, make sure to
take anti-static measures beforehand.
 Use a work table.
Place the server on an anti-static mat to work with it.
 Clothing
– Do not wear a wool or synthetic cloth.
– Wear anti-static shoes.
– Take off any jewels (a ring, bracelet, or wrist watch).
 Handling of components
– Keep any component in an anti-static bag until you actually install it to the server.
– Hold a component by its edge to avoid touching any terminals or components.
– To store or carry any component, place it in an anti-static bag.
CONFIRMATION AFTER INSTALLATION/REMOVAL
Confirm the following after installing an additional option or removing a component:
 Install removed components exactly as they were
Install the components and cables which were removed and disconnected to add an option exactly as they
were. Assembling without re-installing a component or with a disconnected cable may cause the server to
malfunction.
 Confirm that no parts (such as screws) are left in the server
Confirm that no particularly conductive parts, such as screws, are left in the server. Turning on the power with
a conductive part on the motherboard or on a cable terminal may cause the server to malfunction.
 Confirm that the server is properly cooled
Confirm that the ventilating holes are not covered with an internally connected cable. Insufficient cooling
raises the internal temperature, which may cause the server to malfunction.
 Confirm that the server is operating normally
Some additional devices require using a diagnostic utility or the BIOS SETUP utility to check if they are
installed correctly. For more information, refer to the procedure for the additionally installed target device.
